As mentioned, this is THE Viva Las Vegas Car and we are selling it to make way for a new one. I have done my best to list as much as possible but please feel free to contact us with any further questions. Let me start by saying there is very little of this car that is 1932. I believe there is one part of the chassis that enables it to be registered as 1932. Please note that the license plates are 1932 plates and are registered to the car.

Lets start with the body. This is a fibreglass body with a steel hood. The fenders are also fibreglass. It is all painted gloss black. Please note that there are slight scuff marks on the body work but no damage. It has been on display at various events and has been photographed with thousands of people. The VIVA LAS VEGAS logo is painted on the doors. It is not a sticker or anything. The logo will still be on the car when you buy it. The interior has been reupholstered as you can see in the photos. It has a vintage style dash and all of the gauges are modern vintage looking gauges that all work. Although I would not trust the gas gauge too much. The steering wheel and column are a modern vintage look from Limeworks. Hidden under the dash and out of view are speakers for the sound system and a cigarette lighter socket. The sound system is a CD/radio that is in the trunk. It has a remote control to operate it and also has an iPhone hook up by the seat. The car has seat belts for 3. These can be tucked away out of sight for display.

The chassis is a reproduction chassis. It has a Mustang front end with disc brakes at the front. The rear end has drum brakes. Coil spring suspension all around. Tires are in good shape and have plenty of tread.

The engine is a 350 V8 with automatic transmission. The car is fast as it weighs so little. The motor does not seem to have a choke so if it has not been used for a while it takes a few turns to start it up.Once running it runs great. The motor has an automatic electric fan and an expansion tank. There is a slight oil leak from the engine.

The brakes are NOT power brakes so you need to push a bit harder than in a modern car.

As the car is light you can easily wheel spin.

The electrics in the car work well and the battery charges well. It has brake lights but NO TURN SIGNALS. Lights all work well. Dashboard lights up. There is a disconnect switch in the trunk. The trunk lid opener is behind the seat. The car comes with a cover to go over the cab but not a roof.

I am proud of my Ebay feedback rating so I am going to list here a few things that are not quite 100% on the car.

Some of the interior trim needs re attaching.

Passenger door latch spring needs replacing. The door still closes properly.

Slight oil leak from engine.

Takes a few turns to start sometimes as there is no choke.

Fuel gauge not accurate.

Body has some scuffs and marks on it.

Personally I would like stronger brakes and considered converting to power brakes.

On the steering wheel part of the black coating has peeled off.

The gear indicator is not accurate but is easy to get used to.

I have listed as much as I can think of. I will welcome any inspection. If you want me to email you photos of any parts of the car I can do that also. I want you to be happy with your purchase and make sure that you are informed about everything to do with the car.

The car has a clear title and is currently registered in California. It is sold with NO WARRANTY. If you are interested, I urge you to find the time to come and look at the car before bidding. We are in Los Alamitos in California (near Long Beach).

2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.

Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
